You know how sometimes something will happen and you think, "That would be a great scene for a movie"? No? Well sometimes that happens to me. Last night was one of those times.
We (a bunch of people from our softball team who got together to celebrate one of the kid's birthdays) were talking and Sylvia and I brought up the fact that we had recently gotten some popcorn still on the cob from our CSA. We didn't know what the heck to do with it so we asked the others. We got to discussing whether or not it needed to be dried first which naturally led to how do you dry it if it needs it. The joking (I hope) suggestion of throwing it in the dryer was mentioned. Which then led to the potential of it also popping in the dryer. Which led to:
Remove the lint trap, dump a cup of popcorn in the dryer, set it on high and sit outside by the dryer vent with a big bowl. (And something to catch the popcorn in too. Ba-dum-bum. That was for you Zoe.)
C'mon, that would be a funny scene if put in the right hands.

Man, it seems like that popcorn is taking forever to pop.
zoe: Yeah, and I'm really thirsty too.
Speaking of needing to hire a contractor...
For that thirst, put a few (hundred) alka-seltzers in the washing machine. Popcorn can give you heartburn now and then.
I still want to know if your clothes would smell like popcorn or if your popcorn would smell like warm towels. Can you use Bounce on your popcorn?
Maggie: Popcorn doesn't give me heartburn but the idea of mixing drinks in the washing machine is an excellent one. Just start the spin cycle and the party is hoppin'!
1914: Only use Bounce on your popcorn if you want your popcorn fluffy and static free. And who doesn't?
